Wow, so if enough Americans pirate music, they will then give it to us free? Legally?

That is motivation to stop piracy . . .

There is definitely software that can re-route your IP through China or any other country. Some people used these programs; when they were blocked from using ISO Hunt not that long ago.

Programs such as Hide IP Platinum do slow things down though.

STUPID Americans subsidize drug research! Corrupt pharmaceutical firms export the same pills to foreign countries, where the prices are much cheaper. So people go to Mexico and Canada to fill their prescriptions. Everything is over the counter in Tijuana's drug stores too.

Now the RIAA wants to do the same thing with copyrighted music. These IDIOTS only encourage piracy with this madness...

a proxy is what is needed. doesn't Hide IP Platinum just hide your browser?

drug companies, well the problem there is they charge too much, should deciding weather people with aids in Africa die because they can't afford the drugs at the levels set by the US and Euro firms or should they be allowed to make generic medicine to keep people alive?

American government/corporations always seems to care more about profit than human life!
